Chapter 80: Lake
RABIYA
A beautiful face could never defeat a sexy mind. But in Travis Exposito’s case, he had both. He had a charm twice as the charm of the prince of the British Empire, while at the same time had a mind as sexy as the mind of Professor in a Netflix series called La Casa De Papel. I need not to argue about it anymore because it was all true. No one could ever change my mind in whatever way, and no one could ever convince me to stop liking and adoring the son of the town’s great detective.
As we watch Travis brother unbolted the door of his private car, we spread wide and disarrayed on the pavement for no reason. We broke apart from each other, as we followed his brother with our eyes. He was holding a microphone when he stepped out of the driver’s seat. Then followed behind him were three other men which to me were the ones who were going to tape him and direct him what to do. It seemed li

Could somebody please tell me how to not be sad knowing you wanted to follow your old man’s footsteps but you were not that good enough to do that? And one more thing; every thing I had been feeling all this time, were these just bits and pigments of sadness brought by the demises of the victims, or was I just really depressed with everything that had been going through? I could not figure which was which. Can somebody please do it for me?As I continued gazing to the crystal clear lake beneath the sloping stone bridge, I did not know that pulps of tears were already forming on the corners of my eyes. They were big drops of waters when they fell and rolled over my cheeks down to my neck. As far as I could genuinely remember, this was the first time I ever cried. Like real cry. Not forced. Not faked. Not a product of my over-intensified talent in drama. The sob I did after seeing the dead bodies of my two classmates were fake. Yes, they were indeed fake. It
The Photo Collector Chapter 82: The Runaway Student
CHUCKAs we walked back to the covered gym where outside of it were the students gathering up for a protest they did not knew was useless, I noticed that Travis was not on his usual self. He would often look around as if he was looking for someone or something, and then he would partially talk to himself and discuss matters on his own. I tried to ask him about it, like ask him about what he was so anxious about, but he would just smile at me and nod his head while saying, “no, I am good. I am fine.” But based on his body language, he was completely not fine.When we arrived at the curve on the left wing of the area, it was when an intense and gratifying event took place. As strange as it may seemed, Travis suddenly paused on his spot and all of a sudden, he stopped breathing. Like he just stood there, steady and unbothered on his position, while looking up to the se
The Photo Collector Chapter 83: The Vanishing
TRAVIS“This is where the magic happens.”As far as I could remember, these six words were the only words I said after I left Chuck and Rabiya on the pavement not far from behind the group of students participating in the protest. And thinking about it, I could say that to them, it might have sounded like a promise. Or like a platform. Or like a pledge. Or like something whatever you call when one had said something to you and you just listened at it thinking, ‘this are quite nice words. I will remember these. I will lock these in my ears and I will get back on them when the time comes for them to come true.’ But the truth was, none of these referred to the words I said. Because if I had to think of a word that would best describe the sentence that I blurted out four minutes and fifty-five seconds ago, it should be a ‘lie.’ Yes, it was all just a ‘lie.’
The Photo Collector Chapter 84: Lost
RABIYAI was greatly startled when I saw Chuck running and rushing through the heavy, populated, mammoth crowd, bumping each and every person blocking his way. He was as if in an emergency based on how the way he creased his forehead as he shot a blaze of his meteor eyes towards my direction. While snaking through the students, he tried to shout out a few words, but the on going protest was growing more and more intense and loud, that was why there was no way I was able to hear him or perhaps figure out what he was saying the whole time.Convinced that it was really an emergency, I met him halfway. I tossed my megaphone to Philip, and I wore off the placard I hung on my self. i treaded past the line formed by our classmates, and I did not gave a damn if whether or not their eyes and gazes were following me. As sooner as we can, we met in the middle and that was when everything suddenly came into light.
The Photo Collector Chapter 85: Guardian Angel
The amount of fear and trembling I and Chuck both felt was overwhelming enough to send shivers all over our body. It was kind of ironic to believe that Travis suddenly disappeared out of nowhere along with that sophomore student, knowing that if there was anything bad that really happened, he should have sent instant warning or notifications right away. He could have left patterns on the pavements and the path walks, or he could have shouted loud enough to be heard. There were a plenty of ways he could do to send a signal of warning, but he did not. And in this case, the worst thing that could happen was that, it was him who was in danger. Not the sophomore student.Chuck and I stared at each other and by simply doing it, I could already tell that we were thinking the same thing. ‘What if Travis had an encounter with the serial killer?’ ‘What he had crossed paths with that psychopath and found no way to escape?’ ‘What if he’s

The Photo Collector Chapter 87: Project: Reinforcement
Chuck was right when he said that Travis was our guardian angel. He was, indeed, our guardian angel. Because of him, we were able to get rid of the murder of the janitor that was framed to all of us. However, the only down side that I could see with that was, his plan and his blueprint was so successful that even up until this day, his body was never found yet. To be honest, no one had even noticed that he had gone missing for more than a week already. Even his family, I doubted if they knew he was dead already. With Travis as the only person who knew where his dead body was being buried and thrown away, the chances of finding them was zero. Swear to God, he will never leak the place where he hid the janitor.As I digested the words of Chuck, I thought of this one specific thing again. Why were the faculty did not wonder why the janitor had not show up for eight days straight? I mean, okay, the building had indeed a great number of janitors that were tasked to m
The Photo Collector Chapter 88: There's No Turning Back
PHILIP I knew at first glance to my wrist watch that we were going to take more than three hours here in this protest movement. It had been an hour and thirty four minutes only when we started to gather here in this venue with our placards and signages saying that we deserve not only an academic break but stronger and safer protocol. For some reasons, it occured to me that the faculty was not there, inside the covered gym. But then, when the Vice Principal’s personal assistant came out from the gym’s entrance, it was when I was able to confirm that they were really there, hiding. Now that I was pretty convinced that all of my speculations were true, I was starting to doubt the whole scenario. Suspiciously, why would they stay hiding inside and get themselves rid of the media if they were not taking away something from the public? Was it really necessary to ignore the students’ protest? I thought Hamlet Creek U
